Does anyone on this planet have any concept of the Law of Unintended Consequences? Anyone?

Sure, but where's the fun in that? Nobody wins prizes worrying about future consequences.

Good point! What now long-dormant diseases were hosted by Woolly Mammoths? No one knows.

I believe that was the job of the Jeff Goldblum character in Jurassic Park.

Direct cloning would never work...perhapse the interbreeding concept may.

A direct clone of a 10,000 year old wooley mammoth probably wouldn't last 10 days outdoors. There are so many new and evolved viruses that his immunity system just wouldn't be up to the task.

Yes, but they haven't managed to get out of bed yet, today. Never know what might happen.

You sound like a fundamentalist Luddite. Seriously.
